【竹蔗 vs 蔗糖 】
你有吃竹蔗嗎?其實除了當水果吃,竹蔗的用途甚為廣泛,竹蔗性寒,有清熱潤燥、生津解渴功效,涼茶舖常見的竹蔗茅根水就有助清熱。而我們每天吃到的糖,其實亦是由竹蔗提煉而成,中醫角度認為糖有潤肺生津、補脾益氣的作用,尤其紅/黑糖,屬性變成偏溫,保留較多甘蔗元素和礦物質,具健脾暖胃、散寒活血的功效。體質虛寒、手腳冰冷、脾胃虛寒人士簡單用薑及紅糖煮杯紅糖薑茶飲用,都有驅寒暖胃作用。

Bamboo Cane vs Sucrose
Have you eaten bamboo cane? Besides eating it as a fruit, we can use it for many purposes. Bamboo cane is cold in nature and can clear the heat, moisten the body, induce salivation, and quench thirst. The bamboo cane and cogongrass root drink we often see in herbal tea shops can help dissipate heat from the body.
The sugar we consume daily is made from bamboo cane. From the perspective of Chinese Medicine, sugar can moisten the lungs, induce salivation, nourish the spleen, and strengthen the qi. Brown sugar, which is warmer in nature, contains more natural elements and minerals from the bamboo cane, and it can strengthen the spleen, warm the stomach, dissipate cold, and invigorate the blood.
Individuals with a cold body and cold limbs and those with a weak and cold stomach and spleen can make themselves a cup of brown sugar ginger tea with ginger and brown sugar to dispel the cold in their body and warm the stomach.
